Tempting Temperley

Over the past several weeks I have been cleaning out my closets.
I have decided to be ruthless,
and keep only those things that I feel beautiful in,
And I will only buy new things that make me feel special.
Therefore, my wardrobe is a little sparse at the moment.
Now, if I was rich …
I would head over to Temperley to supplement my summer look
Have you seen their new stuff?






A girl can dream.

Beauty on a Budget: ‘Time to Spa’ Elemis Shower Gel {Nantucket Edition}

This was the free shower gel in my cottage bathroom.
It smells like a mixture of chamomile and mint.
And, if you follow my blog at all,
you must be catching on that smells matter in Caroland.
This smell is intoxicating. And utterly relaxing.
The only regret I have about my vacation,
was that I only ‘borrowed’ one little bottle of this baby to bring home.
Trust me. Order it here.
I can’t wait to try the other varieties.

Dear Kate Middleton …

Since you are British and the possible new queen — I am going to overlook the hat…

…but the rest of this look is superb! I mean this chick is my age and her grace and aplomb is eons away from my own. Is it because she is British? Is it because she is almost royalty?

Well, anywho — Kate since you will not be able to re-wear this coat since I mean who does that! — can you please send it to me. I want it. I love it.

Thanks ~ C

‘…ticket to ride’

vanilla-splits

1.  I love Volkswagons. (I have a bunny I fondly refer to as Sophie)

2.  I want to go to London BAD

3.  I love good design with a retro feel

4.  I sometimes get a bad case of wanderlust

To the rescue is Vanilla Split. Why is a VW bus rental company called this? No idea — but it adds to the mystic for me.

And although my husband says this site with all its flash gave him a seizure — I still love it!  I love the idea, the design, the feel — although I agree a little less movement might be better. But it makes me want to rent a bus and thus the creators have reached their goal…

Flo — you and me might be soul mates.
